A total of two kinases, ib kinase (IKK) and recombinant tank binding kinase 1 (TBK1), are closely associated with obesity and inflammation and results from animal experiments demonstrated that the expression of IKK and TBK1 was upregulated in adipose tissue of diet-induced obese animals, but IR, obesity and adiposity were not observed in IKK and TBK1-deficient animals
Note that combining GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists with DPP-4 inhibitors is not recommended due to overlapping mechanisms
